Crazy to think he was murdered.
Edit: the president, not the dog.

Thank you for the edit, because I was about to commit a hate crime.
Yeah the president can go fuck himself I guess.
Well yea he was assassinated for a very good reason, there's a reason his approval ratings TANKED after people found out why the guy killed him.
Yeah that is why I kind of despise outrages. It comes not at the sign of trouble, but at the sight of drama. In this case it waited up until it was no longer even that much of a thing while it poisoned politics for over 2 decades.
The guy did nothing of positive note, it was plain bloody revenge and people cheered for it, at least that is what you are saying.
It helped expose a lot of government connections to the moonies, so something positive came out of it. Abe kinda sucked anyway. The conservatives have held power in Japan for literally like 60 years (minus a couple years right before the 2011 tsunami).
Amazing execution, good cause, excellent effects. I like it.
The reason is even crazier
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Shinzo_Abe
Tl;dr the killer held a grudge against this religion (cult) which Abe helped spread in Japan. His mother had given all of the family's money to them and basically ruined the entire family's lives.
And succesfully using a makeshift gun at a rare occasion of Abe visiting his town. The whole story reeks of wtf moments. Reddit was mad when it started to uncover.
As an American I both respect and fear that man's ability to redneck engineer a working gun and kill a president
Surprisingly enough, makeshift guns are plentiful and incredibly ingenious. Some are even made with completely out of the box thinking.
I've seen guns made from these, steel pipes turned into single shot rifles and even muzzle loaders.
And then she went on to become a brand "ambassador" for one of the shadiest oil companies on the planet. Truly living the dream.
And found to have been on gear the entire time
Gear?
PED
spoiler
performance enhancing drugs, for your next question
You don't understand, there was a pet dog at stake!
I think anyone would love to be that dog alright hahaha
It's Russia, shady AF companies are the only kind they have. If you're not owned by the Russian Mafia and/or a sociopathic silovik, it's only a matter of time until you're sold out or the victim of a hostile takeover.
The question is: What has the dog done to achieve VIP status?
It was the goodest boy.
This is the only answer.
Username checks out
I'm glad she got the dog, but an Akita as a first dog wouldn't be my suggestion.
Akita is like advanced-level dog.
Who is your favourite figure skater ?
Brian Boitano of course!
I wonder what he'd do if he were here...
I bet he'd kick an ass or two.
THAT'S what Brian Boitano'd do!
Tony Hawk
Dude's legit. He wanders around Del Mar just having fun for the most part. He also tells any kid that's giving their parents crap about pads and a helmet, "Hey there, I'm Tony Hawk, and I have broken every bone in my body while wearing the pads and helmet. I know they don't look cool, but you know what's even less cool? Brain damage." It gets through to most of them, though some of them legit don't know who he is these days.
Tanya Harding
It's TONYA Harding.
Does anybody here even watch my movies?
Hey I was like 12 when Kerrigan kneecapped her. I'm lucky I remember her name at all, lol.
Oh and don't take it personally. I just don't care for TV or Movies
For me, definitely Surya Bonaly. Guess my answer shows my age, lol.
I remember watching the 98 Winter Olympics and screaming in awe when she landed with a single blade after he backflip.
Absolutely phenomenal.
Katerina Witt. Because of one performance I saw during my especially formative years.
Adam Rippon
Can't be that good -- just got kicked off of Strictly.
Sasha Cohen. Sadly it never quite all came together for her, but she was so elegant on ice.
Didn't he play Borat?
Ken Wu
Imagine trying to tell this child a single thing for the rest of her life
In my experience with teenagers and dogs there is no way she would be walking it. There will be a disgruntled parent standing in a park waiting to clean up a presidentially ordained victory shit.
